Chapter 146 – Traitor

Deep in the forest, the three wearing thick robes were heading towards their destination, stepping on the muddy ground in the drizzling rain.

Melchior still didn’t like what Melissa did to Camellia, and in the end, he couldn’t contain the injustice and spit it out.

“No, no matter how crazy you are, are you still going to cast heat spells on your colleagues?”

“Still, it’s amazing… I walked with something so strong that if it were me, I wouldn’t have looked back and attacked right away, but to be patient with that… I really have to admit her patience.”

“No, that’s not what I’m talking about morally…”

Despite Melissa and Melchior’s jokes, Zeke warned them without changing his expression.

“We’ll be arriving soon. And since we don’t know what’s going to happen, we’d better refrain from joking.”

“Yes, what is it?”

“…Anyway, are you really going to be okay? You said that to Ricardo, so there’s no turning back now. He’s a pretty valuable force.”

Then, Melchior scratched his head and answered in a shy voice.

“It’s not long since he’s had a baby. At least you have to listen to what he calls his father. So it doesn’t matter. The leader knows that, so he told us the truth.”

“Right, it doesn’t matter if we act together and die, is that so? I suddenly feel sad and cry. I want to see my grandchildren born too.”

“Please keep your mouth shut. The story keeps leaking elsewhere.”

Zeke headed forward, ignoring Melissa and Melchior’s foolishness. He didn’t care at all if his feet got dirty from the pouring rain. My hands are dirty from cutting down and killing many of the black round table’s stalwarts who have stood in my way until now, but is it any big deal that my feet are dirty with mud?

After walking for a long time, they finally arrived in front of a red-lit cave.

“You’ve arrived.”

They went into a cave covered with blood magic that forbade the permission of those who were not permitted to do so, and faced a shocking truth.

“Leader, what the heck…”

“No what the fuck is going on! Explain!”

Inside the cave, there should have been a coffin in which Saint Medea was sealed. It was an object called the coffin of a goddess that freezes the time of the body, leaving only the consciousness of the sick person in confinement.

To be precise, the coffin itself was there. However, the coffin was wide open, and there was not a single grasshopper in it, let alone Mediah.

Faced with this shocking truth, Melissa and Melchior were shaken, and Zeke was the only one who maintained a calm expression.

“Where did Mediah go? You know something from the look on your face, right?”

“What kind of bastard kidnapped our colleague? Your fucking wife was kidnapped, but why does your expression look like that, you crazy bastard!”

Zeke’s expression was calm even as Melissa and Melchior grabbed him by the collar.

“Calm down.”

“The word ‘calm down’ right now…!”

“I’ll ask you, Melissa. The only ones who can break through the blood magic you installed and enter this are your colleagues, the few members of the royal family who know about this, and the tree spirit king who occasionally comes to heal her, right?”

“Yes! But… Ah.”

It was clear that the Black Table, the cultists, or other villains would be seduced by the blood magic.

“Still, he might have broken through the blood magic… No, the blood magic curtain was fine. Even so, there are many people with unique constitutions at the Black Round Table. Even those who can break through the magic curtain…”

“Yes, but let’s remember the nature of this coffin.”

The condition for opening the coffin of the goddess with a person inside was simple. Someone outside pulled the handle of the coffin, and the consciousness of the person inside allowed it.

But her absence meant that she went out on her own.

“All I needed was confidence. Now I can speak with confidence.”

“So you’re saying that Medea was a traitor?”

“No fuck… So Mediah is a traitor and we pointlessly doubted each other. What kind of fool is that…”

“No, it wasn’t pointless.”

Zeke, who was fiddling with the handle of the goddess’ coffin, told them.

“As you can see, in order to open the coffin of a goddess, you need someone from the outside to open it. I just needed confidence in the person who opened it.”

Melissa’s expression turned blue. She seemed to have realized the truth. Unfortunately, Melchior did not.

“The traitor is Medea. So the person she communicates with has opened up…”

“Remember the conditions of the blood magic in this cave.”

“No, definitely… no… that’s ridiculous… oh yeah, there’s a snitch among the royal family…”

“If he did, Ricardo would have noticed something. And… who among us had the best abilities for spies?”

“But if he’s a traitor… Why didn’t the old Heavenly Demon tell Werner and Camellia? You could have said enough!”

“That’s because she was a precious person to the Heavenly Demon.”

Zeke was terrifyingly calm even as he revealed these shocking facts. It was like talking to someone else.

“I confided to the Heavenly Demon. I’m suspicious of her, so I’ll act like her, and if I’m sure after observation this time, I’ll dispose of it. If I die, ask me to lead the party in my place.”

“It’s not possible that the Heavenly Demon went instead of you…”

“He said that he would clear up his friend’s false accusation, and if he cleared the false accusation, he would ask for a formal apology.”

Ricardo’s expression also turned blue. Confused, he asked Zeke in a trembling voice.

“I’m sure that certainty…”

“I was sure there was a traitor, but I wasn’t sure there were two traitors.”

Picking up the card that fell on the floor, Zeke smiled at the clown picture drawn on the Joker card.

“Isn’t the woman’s acting truly disgusting and frightening? How could she act like that…”

“If that’s what I needed to be sure of for a moment… Since when did you realize that Mediah was a traitor?”

“The fact that the organization she belongs to is the Black Round Table was 15 years ago, and… the fact that she’s plotting something has been since our first meeting.”

Rather, Melchior and Melissa almost passed out at Zeke’s calm reply. I couldn’t understand his psychology of marrying and giving birth to a child while knowing that she was suspicious.

“Fuck me, my brain’s on fire from too much information coming in.”

“Wait a minute, why did you marry him when you knew he was suspicious? Did you love him enough to surpass that?”

Only then did Zeke’s expression change at Melchior’s question. The expressionless face was cold, and it turned into a very cold and heartless face… a face that felt cold anger.

“…Love Mediah…? Unfortunately, I don’t have that kind of feeling.”

“Then why did you marry Medea?”

Then, Sieg tightly gripped the hilt of the holy sword. It is a sword bestowed by his benefactor and symbolizes the reason he lives.

“Repay the favor.”

“favor…?”

“I’m just repaying my kindness towards my benefactor. And… Werner once told me this. Trash is taken away by the person who sees it.”

He just heard the words and immediately put them into action. He was aware of the fact that Werner was in love with Mediah. That’s why it was necessary to break the trigger before the relationship deepened and suffered a more painful betrayal. Even if he mixes with a woman he hates.

At first, the woman who showed interest in and seduced him, the owner of the holy sword, later showed interest in the boy who was able to use magic with ten attributes. What she would do, how she would betray her later, how Werner would react to being betrayed by the person he loved for the first time… he could clearly see it.

That’s why he only wanted to become the trash that took away love. He didn’t particularly care for Werner. I just hoped that someone’s first love wouldn’t end in a nightmare. It was just that her first love was precious to the extent that she cherished someone else’s first love that much.

And he was also aware of the fact that he was aiming for the child to be born between Werner and Glaceon, who had an excellent lineage. That’s why I deliberately distanced myself from Werner so that Werner could run away. So that he no longer recognizes himself as a stranger, not a family member. Even so, so that he can escape from Mediah’s evil beast.

“It must be for the same reasons as when you uttered harsh words at Ricardo. I didn’t want to drag you into this kind of mud.

Zeke made a slightly sad face and headed out of the cave.

“It must be the older brother’s role to kill the rats in the muddy soles. The rats may bite the younger brother’s chest.”
